OK, shorty! ;)

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I never saw that one before!

NB - Just noticed you can see Alpe d'Huez village a few pixels to the right of Brownmonkey's right shoulder...

I was standing in a Marmott hole at the time...

Was that before or after you clubbed it with a shovel?

And then stuck a sanitry towel on it...

I forgot about those damn press on towels everywhere.

Still, getting clubbed to death with a shovel is only half the story. I just found out what Blondin didn't tell us. The locals smoke the marmots afterwards.

That pic is awesome Jay. I wonder if you can tweak it in p-shop to bring out the rooster tail a bit more?

Er, I didn't manage to take that many pictures of myself. Does anyone have a half decent one of me? A skiing one as opposed to standing around... Don't remember any being taken.

Might be able to get a nice vid cap...

and ya dont stop

I think I must've missed this one the first time around.

Bump 'cause it rules.

Any plans for '05-06?

Hope to be in La Grave Dec 26 05 to Jan 2 06. Looking for a cheap apartment for 4-7 people. Any suggestions?

Yes, I did search, but I couldn't find what I was looking for.

If you are feeling adventurous,or are accustomed to a bit more rustic places,then try Gité L´Rocher(?). A gite with 4-7person rooms, cheap (12€ night/person),goood kitchen,nice dining area and 100meters from the lift.

I stayed there last year during the mini. Affordable, functional and close to the action. For a gite/hostel, I second what MH said, the kitchen is great! Plenty of space in fridges and for cooking. Bunk beds in most rooms.

I skipped their petit dejeuner and went up to the patisserie and grabbed a cafe in big hotel in town.
